visit deals with the surveillance and identification using biometric face recognition. Thereby visit examines the scientific perspective of 150 years of researching: The ideal conception of the individual body subject as a measurable and identifiable object.

The strongly connected investigation of facial features and patterns with it should predict a clear automated identification, over a classifying within the group of human being. Until today there is no explicit (100%) digital identification possible.
